Strong character development: Complicated
Loveable characters: Complicated
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

The first 75% of this book was absolutely heart wrenching and beautiful, but the last quarter fell a little flat. The prose was still stunning, however, and I love a tale of human resilience, kindness, and compassion. Honestly, this book really moved me, start to finish, and was quite stunning, even if the ending fell a little flat.
